Anyone have the solutions? I found puzzles online but they don't come with the solutions and using a chess program to get the solution would take forever.

I have all of the solutions, but they are in the back of my copy of the book, so I don't know how to get them to you 😀

Both books are pretty good, however, I've only gotten through about 650 of the exercises in the second one. I try to do 10 or 20 when I get up in the morning. I was humming along, collecting scalps, then I got the big head and quit doing the exercises. Now, I'm losing games right and left and getting into more bad positions.

Suprising as it maybe be, I still don't own one chess book, dvd.

I borrow them all from our chess club🙂 So lucky.

Naw, I would rather stick each position into fritz and get the solution, then buy that book.

There is Academic Chess which has a whole bunch of puzzles with better graphics and solutions but I believe they only give you the first move of the solution and I always have trouble with that page for some reason. 3 years ago I didn't though.

Would a scanner work?

I tried scanning in some chess books but it didn't come out so good and some of the stuff was cut of because it was where the book was binded.
